DEBATE

جزوه « ساواک »

اشاره به نوشته دکتر ناصر زرافشان در نقد گفتار دکتر عباس ميلانی

01-Sep-2007 (one comment)
آقای دکتر ميلانی در آن گفتگوی کذائی با روزنامه «هم ميهن» شديدأ به نيروهای چپ بخاطر اينکه تحت تأثير «فرهنگ روسی » قرار داشته و دارند ، حمله کرده است ، آنهم بدين جهت که طرفداران آن ها ،« چيزی بنام فرهنگ جمعی راه انداختند » و در آن رابطه کوچکترين نقشی برای « فرد» قائل نشدند. او در آن گفتگو بدون اينکه به نقش مهمی که حاکمين سرکوبگر و سانسورچی که با اعمال خود جلوی چاپ اکثر کتاب های سياسی و روزنامه و مجلات را گرفتند و درآن رابطه اين امکان را بمردم ايران ندادند تا در جامعه ايران برخورد عقايد صورت گيرد و نيروهای سياسی برای نظرات و عقايد خود بطور علنی در بين مردم به تبليغ،ترويج و روشنگری دست بزنند و سره را از ناسره جدا کنند، تمام کاسه کوزه ها را سر چپ و در پيشاپيش آنها حزب توده خرد کرده است. گويا در بوجود آوردن آن وضع، نهادهای سرکوبگر رژيم شاه ، همچون ساواک و دستگاه سانسور رژيم، کوچکترين نقش منفی نداشته اند. >>>

Empowering Iranian women through signature campaign

01-Sep-2007 (one comment)
Since June 2005, Iranian society has witnessed the emergence of a discourse centered on women’s rights that has managed to seep into even the most conservative of sectors, and spans a broad segment of society, such as women’s rights activists, NGOs and civil society, academia, government, religious leaders, and the general public. Much of these accomplishments, in my opinion, can be linked to the efforts of a Campaign, which seeks to collect one million signatures with the aim of reforming laws which place women at a legal disadvantage. This Campaign which was launched in late summer of 2007, has managed to attract the support and participation of 1000s of volunteers and supporters >>>

Once again I met one of those Iranian women who couldn’t stop talking about all the difficult times she had with her ex-husband and how she suffered being married to an Iranian pig! I know there are lots of flaws with our men (and women, sorry ladies ;-)) but these type of women who live in western countries and came all the way by their ex-husbands’ support (and still living off the money they provided to them), should shut up! >>>

LIFE

Longer vacations

... better workforce

Making fun of the French is a favorite American pastime, none more so than when it comes to how much vacation French workers take. This really gained national attention here in the USA when France opted for the 35-hour workweek. Laugh all we want, but in my humble opinion, they will have the last laugh. The issue goes far beyond just how much one works or plays. The United States ranks last among 21 industrialized countries in the number of days of paid vacation and holidays it guarantees workers by law, says a study by the Washington-based Center for Economic and Policy Research. So complete is the corporate grip on the American psyche that no day in the year, not even July 4, the most patriotic U.S. holiday of all, is a paid holiday guaranteed by law.>>>
